Buzz Williams & Co. had no answer for No. 15 Alabama's high-octane offense on Saturday as the Crimson Tide rolled up 100 points on the Aggies. With a second-consecutive loss, Texas A&M is back to .500 in the SEC with six regular-season games remaining.

Struggling to contest 3-pointers, the Aggies surrendered an alarming 18 makes from beyond the arc in Saturday's loss to No. 15 Alabama, 100-75. Conversely, Texas A&M continued to fire from long range without success, shooting 4-of-23 and taking another step back in the process.

Nates Oats and his 15th-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide sit atop the Southeastern Conference standings as the stretch run of the regular season is now underway. After falling in Nashville on Tuesday, the Aggies will likely have their hands full with the Tide.

This season, Texas A&M basketball is 4-4 on the road in 2023-2024, which appears problematic considering the Aggies travel to Tuscaloosa for a Saturday matchup with No. 15 Alabama. Williams & Co. hope to sing a different tune on this trip.

A panel of select SEC and national media members has concluded that Texas A&M junior guard Wade Taylor IV is worthy of being the league's preseason Player of the Year. This is the first time an A&M player has received the honor.

Fall sports are now in full swing, and excitement is already brewing for the 2023-24 campaign of A&M hoops tipping off in November. With plenty of experienced players returning and key talent added, Buzz Williams & Co. appear to rank among the best heading into this season.
